Definitions

  • the invention relates to a handle for a goods transport trolley of the type used in shops for transporting purchases and in stations and airports for transporting luggage.
  • This known device has received great commercial success owing to the fact that, by encouraging the assembly of the carriages after use in lines starting at the station heads, the unused carriages are made available to new users and no longer clutter the aisles and the garages.
  • the present invention therefore aims to improve the handles of transport trolleys to eliminate the drawbacks mentioned above, in particular by enabling rapid and inexpensive assembly and maintenance of the coin operated lock devices and, in addition, by allowing the use of the handle without such a device.
  • the handle according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises a transverse housing for a coin-operated lock device, said housing being optionally closed by at least one removable or tear-away partition and comprising means for retaining said device locker locker.
  • the handle according to the invention can therefore be used, if the buyer so desires, without a coin-operated lock device.
  • a coin-operated lock device When it is desired to equip the trolley with a coin-operated lock device, it suffices to dismantle or possibly tear off the closing partition or partitions of the housing, to mount the coin-operated lock therein and to fix it in this housing using the retention means provided for this purpose.
  • the coin-operated lock does not change the size of the handle and, because it is not exposed to view, it can be produced with an economical housing that does not require expensive surface treatment.
  • the handle has a flattened section so as to form on its upper surface an advertising or decorative display area, which improves the aesthetics and the profitability of the handle.
  • the housing for the coin-operated lock device is open at its two ends in order to uncover at one end the slot for introducing a lock deposit item and / or to allow the passage through the other end of a key of another coin-operated lock device and / or the attachment of the key of the coin-operated lock device mounted in said housing.
  • said housing and the housing of the device have complementary shapes such that the introduction of the coin-operated lock device can only take place through one of the openings in the housing, which in itself forms a first stop of retaining of the coin-operated lock device.
  • the handle 1 shown in the drawing comprises two lateral wings 2 terminated by a member 3 for mounting on a carriage (not shown) and surrounding a thickened central portion 4.
  • the central portion 4 comprises a transverse housing open towards the front (FIG. 1) by a window 6 and towards the rear (FIG. 2) by a window 7.
  • the housing 5 gradually narrows towards the front and the windows 6 and 7 can be closed by removable or tear-away partitions (not shown).
  • the handle 1 can be used like an ordinary handle, the windows 6 and 7 possibly being closed. It is also possible to provide for filling the housing 5 with a removable closure piece (not shown). When one wants to equip the handle 1, and therefore the carriage on which it is mounted, it is necessary if necessary to first release the housing 5 and the openings 6 and 7.
  • the device 8 When the device 8 is in place, it is fixed by means of safety screws or, preferably, it is locked on one or more pawls (not shown) projecting inside the housing 5 and which can only be erased '' using a special tool.
  • a slot 11 for introducing the key 9 of a coin-operated lock device mounted on another carriage or a station head (not shown) is accessible through the front window 6.
  • a slot 12 of introduction of a deposit is accessible through the rear window 7.
  • the conicity of the housing 5 ensures that the device 8 cannot be forcibly removed through the front window 6, in particular by traction on the chain 10.
  • the coin-operated deposit device 8 is preferably a very solid metal casing of which only the anterior and posterior faces are visible and must undergo a surface treatment.
  • the body of the handle 1 is preferably made of a resistant synthetic material and is molded in one piece with the mounting members 3 and stiffening ribs (not shown).
  • the handle 1 has over its entire length a flat surface allowing the affixing of advertisements and / or decorations and / or of a manual for the device 8.
  • the housing 5 can occupy any desired transverse position and can in particular be vertical or slightly inclined to the vertical instead of being horizontal as in the example shown.
  • the handle 1 may have a substantially uniform section over its entire length.
